The lifeless body lay sprawled on the cobblestones, a stark reminder of the terror that had gripped the village. The sight of blood pooling around the victim sent shivers through the onlookers, their faces pale with fear and anger. Despite the rage boiling within them, the villagers felt utterly powerless.

"Shh! Keep your voice down!" her neighbor hissed back, glancing nervously at the towering figures of Brendan and Fabio. "If they hear you, it will only make things worse!"
